And has the heart of a lion! And is like a male-equivalent 4:01 miler. Oh but we will ignore her mediocrity. When she runs pedestrian times we are reduced to lauding her post-race 62s (see Xeno's thread). Imagine celebrating AJ Acosta for running a4:03 but then laying down some 55s post-race. Let me puke.

You already bombed your math "conversion" earlier in this thread and like 5 people immediately called you out on it. Are you really gonna try some more?

Aren't you and Jamin, and Hingle and Redux all snugly n bed with a strong fire going in the fireplace with Celine Dion singing you all to sleep?

Are you saying you think AJ Acosta is a cutie pie?

(not that there is anything wrong with that)

Most of us would find it humorous for anyone to call the University of Oregon a "clown college". US News and most any other legitimate rating system has the University of Oregon in the top 1/3 of all American Universities. If you want to call 2/3 of all American Universities clown colleges, that is your right. Of course a lot of people show their ignorance by opening their mouths. BTW, where did you get your education to become a certified clown?

Hey home tonight, are you studying at home? I believe Jordan's GPA BTW was 4.0 throughout her entire college career. Three-time college Academic All-American. Keep studying my son/daughter. Maybe you too can make these boards with the same academic credentials and if you can run a 3:59/4:28 mile. What you think home tonight? Better be studying and running brother.

The two-mile at the New Balance Grand Prix on Feb. 8 should be interesting. Anyone know who else is in the race besides Simpson and Hasay?

Perhaps you were graduated (past passive) from the clown college as well. Do you not know the quotation marks go outside the period like this: "clown college."?

First of all, writing that someone was focused on academics at a clown college like oregon implies that the person was a moron. Only a moron would need to focus in order to graduate from oregon. Second, Hasay's 4:28 is a good time, much better than last week's 2:08.

To say that Oregon is a clown college is an insult to all clown colleges. Oregon is like a community college. But hey! It gave us A Duck.

Actually, I transferred after my eligibility was done and graduated from a much higher rated institution.

Best of both worlds.

Both institutions failed you. You "were" graduated. Past passive.

Yeah, Miss Grammar, I make mistakes when I don't proof.

Other than that, no one gives a sht about people like you with your attitude.

Anyone who thinks Jordan is taking PED's is not affiliated nor has any connection to this sport. Didn't someone say these NOP athletes all get tested by the USATF at least once a week? That's sick! Imagine NFL, NBA, and the MLB having such stringent drug testing requirements. They would all be out of business. Double standard in our sorrowful sports world folks.

Anyone who thinks that Jordan is taking PEDs has no affiliation with, or connection to, this sport. Didn't someone say that all of the NOP athletes are tested by USATF at least once a week? That's sick! Imagine the NFL, the NBA, and MLB having such stringent drug-testing policies. They would all go out of business. Double standards abound in our sorrowful sports world, folks.

Now let's look at the content. First of all, it's quite possible to be heavily involved in this sport and believe exactly what you say is impossible for an insider to believe -- people believe things is the absence of evidence all the time, and Salazar is a known doper. (I think Hasay is as clean as they come, but that's beside the point.) Second, I don't know who "someone" is, but if you think the NOP people are each tested 50 or more times a year, or even 10, you're dreaming.

Are you insane? How about the 3-4:16's,3-4:17's-3-4:18's she ran in HS. You forget all 9 of those?

You are so wrong about this but you think you're right, don't you? I bet you really do.

"Nice" - understatement to say the least.

"Nice" -- A Duck's post -- is succinct and on the mark. It does not have to be taken as understatement.

Alanson appears to have a shallow understanding of "nice," although his pun ("understatement to say the least") was, itself, nice.

Hasay's mile was rare for her and well done.

Wow, top third of over three thousand US colleges. So, let's rank oregon the 1000th best college. Very prestigious.

She ran like a 4:11 equivalent and we are celebrating that? Didn't she run a 4:14 in high school? That was like 6 years ago. 3 seconds in 6 years is laughable Improvement. Imagine a prep 4:0:2 miler who improved to 3:59 in 6 years. We would say he was a flop. But since Hasay is everyone's darling and has the heart of a lion we go crazy over anything she does no matter how pedestrian it is. We need to treat her like every one else. The Emperess has no clothes.

Aside from your horrible understanding of conversions as others have pointed out....would a 3:59 for a guy make you #9 all time in the US? That's what I thought. Poor analysis all the way through.

What Hasay has done since graduating has raised her to a level that not many have reached. 8:46, 31:46, and now 4:28 is nothing to take down on regardless of what she did in HS.

Do you know how many times we've heard someone say stick a fork in her, that she's done, that'll she'll never get faster...fact is she has, and she made the world team last year, and just ran a top 10 all-time US time, and hopefully there's more to come.

Let's stick to the facts. According to the US Anti-Doping Agency's website, in 2013 they tested Galen Rupp 24 times, Ritz 17 times, Hasay 3 times, Moser and Erdmann 5 times, and Mary Cain 9 times. Again, these are tests by a US agency. I suspect (others would know much better than I) that WADA would have tested them at Worlds (not Erdmann, of course) and perhaps elsewhere in Europe. And for point of comparison, Derrick was tested 5 times, Shalane Flanagan 15 times, Jager 6 times, Aaron Braun 1 time, and Ben True 1 time.http://www.usada.org/athlete-test-history

LOL. He thought he was being the grammar police, yet he doesn't understand the rules of grammar. I did have to laugh my ass off on that one.
